Als ich noch der Waldbauernbub war. Band 1
 Für die Jugend ausgewählt aus den Schriften Roseggers vom Hamburger Jugendschriftenausschuß.

by Peter Rosegger

"Als ich noch der Waldbauernbub war. Band 1" by Peter Rosegger is a shortened version of childhood memoirs published between 1900-1902. The work draws from Rosegger's larger collection of youth memories, capturing life in the forested mountain regions of his homeland. These autobiographical tales portray the unique experiences and inner world that develops among those living in the shadow of pine forests, in dewy valley meadows, and on quiet alpine pastures. The stories offer glimpses into a vanished rural childhood.
